A. O. EDWARDS PIE AND CAKE PAN brought together the outer or free side of the bottoni 3 rides up over the ianges 18 and beneath the tongue 19 as is clearly shown in Figure 1 o the drawings and at the saine time. the tongue 13 slides over the inner surface of the nger 15 and projects itself through the aperture le therein while the aperture l? in the linger 15 engages itself over the lug 16 thus locking the sections securely together.

In the hinge construction shown in Figure 6 the part 20 corresponds to the part S in Figure 4, oni),v :is shown, the pan sides 21 are substantially vertical instead of inclined as shown in Iiigure Li.

Having thus described my invention what I claim is:

1. A pan having its side torined in two sections, a bottoni 'formed integral with one of said sections, pair et alined spaced in Wardly extending i'ianges at the lower edge of the other section and adapted to engage the bottom et its underside to support the saine, ad resilient tongue between saidspeced flanges adapted to frictionalljgf engage said bottom at its ton side, a hinge connection between the sections, and r( iiient fasten ing means carried by each section end engaging the adjacent section when the tree ends of the two sections are brought together.

2. In a pen having' an incline-d side, two semi-circular side sections, a substantiall)v circular bottoni 'formed integral with one oi said sections and adapted to engage the other section, e triangularly shaped iateral extension formed integral with and projecting outwardly from one end of each section, each extension being formed along its outer Vertical edge with means to provide hinge knuckles, a pivot pin securing the Knuckles of the extension of each section together, and a, resilient fastening ineens carried by each section and engaging the adjacent section when the free ends off the two sections are brought together'.

In epan, two semi-circular side sections, a substantially circular bottoni 'formed integral with one of said sections, e pair oi spaced alined inwardly extending flanges at the lower edge of the other section adapted to lirictionally engage said bottoni at its underside, a resilient inwardly extending tongue between said spacedA ianges adapted to frietionally engage said bottoni at its top side, a hinge connection between the two ends of seid sections, 2x resilient extension at the Jfree end oi one section having a pair or' apertures therethrough, a tongue it'orined :it the free end of the other extension, and a nin in said section rearwardly of said tongue, said tongue adapted to engage seid extension in one o seid apertures and seid pin adapted to engage in the other ot' seid apertures to lock the ksections when the 'tree ends are brought together.

In testimony whereof, I affix iny signature hereto.
